The power cord on this appliance is equipped with a three-
prong (grounding) plug which mates with standard three-
prong (grounding) receptacles.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is en-
countered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation
of the customer to have it replaced with a properly grounded
three-prong wall receptacle.
FIRE OR EXPLOSION
HAZARD
Where local codes permit, a TEMPORARY CONNEC-
TION may be made to properly ground a two-prong wall
receptacle by the use of an adaptor which is available at
most local hardware stores.
An adaptor plug can temporarily be used (see Figure 4)
preferably with polarized male blades. If an unpolarized
adaptor plug must be used, determine which is the "hot"
side and ground. Place an identifying mark on the adaptor
to assure proper polarization in the future.
